Doesn't talk about environmental effects all, so I'd probably re-title it to say "Poor disk layout format can kill your SSD". Or something like that. I'm curious how well ext2/3/4 and btrfs would work on an SSD formated properly? Also, don't alot of SSDs actually do wear levelling at their firmware level, to get around alot of these issues? Seeing some test results of identical SSDs being formatted in good and bad ways and then written to until dead would be interesting. John
